Graham presented a lengthy argument against the proposal, which had been broached in some quarters prior to that time, It also contained Teference to the fact that thousands of automobiles apparently were in use in the state but had not been registered. Three other Bonger bills regulating the use of highways by commercial trucks and busses also are involved in the Situation and these must be disposed of quickly if the senate is to clear xs decks of legislation of- fered in the upper house by the fif- ticth day of the session, as required by the constitution. & recent statement Bonzer tion of the state highway department, charging it with extravagance. It is the general opinion that this matter must be cleared up before the gaso- line tax increase can expect to pass. Because of the fact that the present law imposing the tax is an initiated measure, a two-thirds majority in each body is necessary to amend it | by legislative enactment. In view of this fact it is expected that an ef- fort will be made to clear up legisla- | tion involving the highway adminis- tration before the gasoline tax pro- Posal is brought to a vote. Hamilton Is Opposed Senator D, H, Hamilton of Mc- Henry county expressed opposition to the proposed increase, calling atten- tion ta the defeat at the June pri- iaary of an initiated measure provid- ing for a four-cent gas tax. He pre- sented the vote of the people, show- ing that 83,681 voters went on record against the increase, while 81,758 ap- Proved the proposal. Senator F. £. Ployhar of Barnes county stated that the initiated Moasure lost by a margin of 1,923 Votes, which indicated sentiment was almost evenly divided on the pro- posal. Senator A, W. Fowler of Cass county stated that many of the voters did not understand the bill, some of them believing that the refund clause of the present law would be elimi- nated I the adoption of the meas- Senator J. K, Brostuen of McKen- aie and Divide counties suggested that the bill be amended to provide for a five cent tax, of which three cents would go to the state and two cents to the county. Under the present Jaw, the state receives two cents of the three cept tax, and the county one cent. Five Cents too High Membera of the committee were generally agreed that a five-cent tax was too high, and would cause defeat of the measure, aud Brostuen then suggested that the bill be amended to that the state receive two cents and the counties two cents of roposed faur-cent tax. This Gust Wog of Belfield made the suggestion that the four-cent tax be divided #0 that two and a half cents would go to the state and one and @ half cents be given to the oth ost id We en an fog's sugges- tions were present formally, and the committes did not vote on them. z sss i : Piles or other rectal troubles, write Dr. McCleary today for a Free copy of this book and their large refer- ence lst of former patients, 104545 i Flax—No. 1 1.55 to 1.56. aa ananeneeenean Uterature sent in plein Bid iu and postpaid. —Adi would Tegistration alt idea for curing Yale students of the ts of week: ———___—______ -__9/ | Weather Report i ) | 3 days, 23 words or under . levelled an attack at the administra- H CLASSIFIED AD RATES All want ads are cash tn advance minimum charge 75 cents.
